If it doesn’t serve Australia, it doesn’t appear. No global leftovers.
Australia
One AUD exchange, picked for PayID and local rails.
Local books (Independent Reserve, Swyftx, CoinSpot) and global platforms that take AUD both appear here — only if they actually serve Australia.
Local rail
PayID / Osko

See what you’ll actually pay
Same Australian dollar amount, same frequency, same rail — then the all-in drag. First-buy mode uses the retail button when a platform has one.
Cheapest here (Binance) vs dearest (Swyftx): A$45 / year

No black boxes
How we pick — and how we get paid
02
True cost, not the headline
Bank or card + retail button or taker fee, in local currency.
03
Trust and ease still count
A cheaper book loses to a safer, simpler app when you said this is your first buy.
04
Commissions can’t buy the rank
Affiliate links, when we add them, never change the score. A failed quality gate just turns the link off.
Questions for Australia
PayID or card?
PayID / Osko / bank transfer is usually free and the default we score. Cards are faster and typically add a few percent.
Local exchange or Kraken?
Independent Reserve is a long-running AUD book. Swyftx and CoinSpot are simpler for a first buy. Kraken is often cheaper if you want a pro interface and already know the pairs.
Are these AUD fees?
Yes — example buys on this page are in Australian dollars. Figures are standard-tier and can change.
AUSTRAC registration and product access differ. Some global platforms limit derivatives for Australian residents. Check the local entity before you deposit.
